Donald Trump had a town hall last night with MSNBC. Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski and the audience were asking Donald Trump questions. At one point, Mika Brzezinski started to describe a candidate to Donald Trump, going through a host of viewpoints and descriptions. She then asked Trump who she was describing. Watch this :36
The look on Trump's face is absolutely priceless.
One would think, this might be something that gives pause to Republicans considering voting for Trump. He and Bernie freaking Sanders are apparently so alike, Sanders gets described and Trump thinks the person is talking about him.
Seriously, what does that say about a Republican, when an admitted and proud socialist is having his viewpoints read to him, thinks the person being talked about is himself, the "Republican?"

He guessed correctly actually. Trump is every bit as socialist as Bernie Sanders. Very little difference between them. So little difference that even Trump himself couldn’t tell them apart.

I think that’s kinda the point. ;-)

My worst fear is that we elect Trump and, after he is in office, he reveals the TRUE Donald Trump — indistinguishable from Sanders.
To: Cincinatus' Wife
Yeah, like Trump and all the viewers didn’t see it coming, lol.

Can’t wait for someone to take Cruz seriously enough to do gotcha questions on him and watch you complain.

Cruz isn’t stupid like Trump, he has a core and understands who he is. Trump is pure bluster. look at his empty threats to sue over Cruz citing his record.

C'mon. Pretty generic question. I saw it live. Trump has said hedge fund managers should pay higher taxes and what candidate in their right mind wouldn't say that everybody who needs health care should be able to get it? Does Cruz or some other candidate really support people who need health care not getting it?
"That candidate is considered a political outsider by all of the pundits," she said.
True of Trump. Is there a problem with this?
"He's tapping into the anger of voters, delivers a populist message.
I concur. Still no problem.
"He believes everyone in the country should have healthcare
Does your candidate believe some Americans should NOT have health care? If not, who?
[and] he advocates for hedge fund managers to pay higher taxes," Brzezinski added.
Ok. This one, I'm stupid on. I don't know what situation hedge fund managers are in now and whether they are or aren't already being treated like anybody else with the current tax code. So, you get me on this one if it is some sort of bad, socialist, Bernie Sanders-like thing.
"He is drawing thousands of people at his rallies and bringing in a lot of new voters into the political process. Who am I describing?"
Well heck I guess he MUST be a socialist because he is drawing thousands to his rallies.
Maybe had Mika added "He supports taxing upper-income Americans to rates of 85% and beyond, Trump could have recognized a difference. Maybe had Mika mentioned "He wants everybody to have a FREE public college education", Trump could have recognized the difference.
So unless Trump's stance on hedge fund managers is some big pinko-commie socialist liberal idea, I see absolutely NOTHING you can criticize him for here. If hedge fund manager taxation is a big socialist idea, then I concede the hit. Otherwise this is a BS setup put out there to make Trump look bad and get all of those who disagree with him to push it viral. Try again.

Wow, even a Trumpster is face palming.

Those were not socialist views. They were simply remarks from Mika and not policy. Being an outsider is not socialist, nor is attracting thousands to your rallies, or in favor of every one having access to healthcare (almost every one agrees with that. You could say that Sanders favors capitalism rather than Trump favors socialism. Both assumptions are wrong and the question by Mika was silly and proved absolutely nothing about Trumps policy positions.

Trump may indeed be nominated. Sure looks like it. But if he is, I’d even worry about carrying Utah.

He’d be far worse that Bush, who actually had some good ideas but was weak at defending them and then finally surrendered to the leftist press and the Dems (we do have to remember held the legislature and were very powerful). Bush’ failing was, if anything, that he was too much of a gentleman, never defended himself, and was so conciliatory he looked like he was working for the other side. But he did have a moral compass and some principles.
Trump has none, either in his personal life or his business life. Anything that benefits him is ok - so he’ll be out there not only making deals with the left, but even adopting their more extreme positions (since as Bernie is showing, that’s what sells). However, like Clinton, he’ll make sure that there’s something in it for him.
